C1 chapter 6 - sequences and series

This chapter is about number patterns (sequences) and the sums of their successive terms (series).

C1 section 6.1

You need to be able to: recognise number patterns and predict the next few terms in them
You need to know: not a lot beyond basic arithmetic
Examples:
the sequence 3, 7, 11, 15, 19, ... is an example of a sequence. It has first term 3 and a rule that appears to be "to work out the next term add 4 to the last term." Note the use commas to separate terms and the use of an ellipsis (...) to indicate that the sequence continues forever.
